I thought this was great. It was really easy to make and fast and the flavor was great, was not too sweet which I was concerned about. Made citrus rice to go with it and family loved it. I also cooked thighs as well and the glaze was enough for all six pieces of chicken I made. Great recipe.

Use this for a whole roasted chicken. Add a few Tbsp melted butter and some fresh minced garlic, hold the honey until the last 15 minutes of roasting (it tends to burn otherwise. This will make the most delicious gravy ever, good on mashed or rice and the chicken has a beautiful golden glaze. Add the honey for only the last baste or two or the sugar burns. If you have a whole orange you can squeeze it and use the juice in the baste (still use some concentrate and pop the squeezed wedges into the chicken with a wedge or two of sweet onion and a few garlic cloves.

This recipe is very good! I baked the chicken in the oven at 375F on the sheet pan lined with parchment paper and for the last 10 minutes of baking I basted it with glaze. To improve the look of the chicken I also broiled it for a few extra minutes. We like it a lot and for me - less skillets to wash.

Vegan, so made this for my family. What a brilliant idea for a meal!
Didn't have orange concentrate, so I used orange juice. It was less of a sauce, but the flavour was (according to my husband wonderful - even my picky kids loved it.
Instead of frying the potatoes in oil, I just boiled it for 15 minutes and popped it into the oven with a little bit of margarine and oregano in a glass bowl. Tasted just as great and a healthy alternative to the up-front frying, although not as golden brown, but was still as crispy.
Everyone wanted seconds!!!

I'm going to go with just "OK" on this one. I loved the glaze but I added a couple of dried chili peppers, some pepper flake, a clove of garlic and some thyme to it. My problem with it was that the skin did get or stay crispy. At the end I ended up taking the soft skin off thus getting rid of a good portion of the glaze. I'll make it again but I'll just use boneless/skinless and call it a day.

I was so disappointed by this recipe. It looked delicious when she made it on TV and all the reviews were great but this was so terrible. The flavors were very one note and the chicken turned out a little dry. I honestly can't believe people love this recipe. I would never make this for myself again, let alone other people. I'd be way too embarrassed to make this for others. I'm a good cook and this is not a good recipe. Really it's awful.

Yum, Yum, and Yum! The point of this recipe is a quick and tasty option...it's not quick if you add a million other ingredients. I think this falls in the category of "Simple food, cooked well." My family thought it was wonderful and I will make it again. A great go to recipe for those busy days!

Like another review, I think the original recipe as posted is so-so. Next time, I will tweak it a bit, but it is a good base recipe.
